  ORGANIC CHEMISTRY-WILEYPLUS NEXTGEN, Chapter 8.8, Problem 21ATS

Concept introduction:

The acid-catalyzed hydration, hydroboration-oxidation, oxymercuration-demercuration, etc. are some examples of addition reactions of alkenes. In hydroboration-oxidation, hydration of alkenes occurs with the Anti-Markovnikov addition. Thus, the addition of H and -OH group occur in the presence of BH3,THF / H2O2, NaOH .

Sharpless epoxidation can be used to stereoselectively convert an allylic alcohol to an epoxy alcohol using Ti(O/Pr)4, t-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) and a chiral diethyl tartrate (DET), as exemplified in the formation of compound E below. HO OBn Ti(O/Pr)4 TBHP L-(+)-DET CH₂Cl₂ HO E OBn (i) Assign the configuration of the two chiral centres in compound E using CIP rules. (ii) E is produced in 94% ee under the conditions. What is the percentage of each enantiomer? (iii) E can be readily debenzylated to give a diol structure, is the diol chiral? Explain.
Several diamines are building blocks for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agro- chemicals. Show how both 1,3-propanediamine and 1,4-butanediamine can be pre- pared from acrylonitrile. NH2 H,N `NH2 H,N CH,=CH-C=N 1,3-Propanediamine 1,4-Butanediamine Acrylonitrile
A chemist allows some pure (2S,3R)-3-bromo-2,3-diphenylpentane to react with a solution of sodium ethoxide(NaOCH2 CH3) in ethanol. The products are two alkenes: A (cis-trans mixture) and B, a single pure isomer. Under the same conditions, the reaction of (2S,3S)-3-bromo-2,3-diphenylpentane gives two alkenes, A (cis-trans mixture) and C. Upon catalytic hydrogenation, all three of these alkenes (A, B, and C) give 2,3-diphenylpentane. Determine the structures of A, B, and C; give equations for their formation; and explain the stereospecificity of these reactions.
